For the English Wikipedia data, a chi-squared test found differences in how users from different “edit buckets” (5 to 99 edits, 100 to 999 edits, and 1000 or more edits) responded to the survey. We thus report data weighted to the edit buckets of the overall user population in 2021.

Based on the responses to the survey, we estimate that users on English Wikipedia overall:

• 13 to 16% felt unsafe or uncomfortable contributing to English Wikipedia in the 30 days before the survey.
• 76 to 79% did not feel unsafe or uncomfortable contributing to English Wikipedia in the 30 days before the survey.
• 6 to 10% were unsure about whether they had felt unsafe or uncomfortable contributing to English Wikipedia in the 30 days before the survey.

In the last 30 days, have you felt unsafe or uncomfortable contributing to Wikipedia (en.wikipedia.org)?	Survey Results for En.WP (Unweighted)	Survey Results for En.WP (Weighted)	Estimates for En.WP population (Margin of Error = ±1.63%, Confidence Interval = 95%)
No	77.1%	77.3%	75.7 to 78.9%
I'm not sure	7.9%	7.9%	6.3 to 9.5%
Yes	15%	14.8%	13.2 to 16.4%

We also conducted t-tests to see whether there were differences in how users from different “edit buckets” responded to the question in relation to all other groups. We find that editors who had made 1000 or more edits on English Wikipedia (M = 2.5553, SD = 0.78375) were more likely to report having felt unsafe or uncomfortable compared to editors who made 5-999 edits (M = 2.6422, SD = 0.71285), t(1053.745)=-2.726, p=0.007.

While editors across “edit buckets” responded “I'm not sure” at approximately the same rate, editors who had made 1000 or more edits were 32% more likely to respond, “Yes,” they had felt unsafe or uncomfortable compared to editors with less than 1000 edits.
